Report him for it. That’s not allowed. There was a guy doing that with CS listings and they made him stop.

Probably using back end API with some sort of timing mechanism.

Probably this one https://gameflip.github.io/gfapi/samples/rl_listing.html

Seems that’s allowed, he keep doing this non-stop.

Hello.

Can you please send any proof regarding what the user is doing? If you have videos or images send it to me, so i can properly investigate this further.

Thanks.

Since he’s mentioned it I’ve kept an eye on it and there isn’t a time of day or night that he hasn’t posted items within a minute or two.

https://gameflip.com/profile/us-east-1:2763979c-c006-47a1-9bf2-9938a1d4d99a/qu1ck-s-market spams constantly with no stop.

he’s still spamming non-stop lol


Yup! Admins can’t stop him or don’t want to. GG WP

I would hate this one guy kills the API for the rest of us.

The API is not meant for spamming/bumping listings. The sample codes provided only list the items once, so this user must have modified it to do a time loop. Please don’t imitate this user’s actions.

Hello guys,

Thanks for the report and the comments. We contacted the user about this.

If you see that this behavior persists, please PM me.

Thanks!

You are very wrong here unfortunately.

This issue needed to be investigated before we could take any actions.

As said, the issue was indeed investigated and we contacted the user.

Thank you.

Thanks Dunn, separate topic, I messaged you about, I got response from support but stuck. I know you have a process with what you do and work but curious to see if you had a second to review my message and possibly help me?

He finally stopped! Thank you!

You guys need a listing moderators or something like that. People keep bumping, selling steam accounts and other shits.

Btw, why just not make a listing limitation with option buy more slots?
